Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest
Chapter 860 - 860 70 Hand Strength_2

Chapter 860: Chapter 70 Hand Strength_2 Chapter 860: Chapter 70 Hand Strength_2 Deputy Li and… Captain Zhou?

No way!!! Have they been invisible in the room all this time? Then the conversation between Yan Yu and me, could it be they overheard everything…

“Xiao Lian.” Zhou Hongyu transmitted her voice coldly.

“I’m sorry, I was wrong Captain Zhou, I didn’t mean to keep it from you!” Tang Xiaolian quickly hugged Zhou Hongyu, crying as she transmitted her voice.

Let’s not mention how the two of them solved this issue for now. Instead, let’s talk about how Yan Yu opened the door for Ye Jun, who held a plastic bag in her hand filled with several steamed buns:

“Have you eaten?”

“Not yet, come on in.” Yan Yu moved aside to let her in.

The battle of the Four Emperors begins!

He turned around, his Divine Sense quietly sweeping over the bed, and saw Li Minghu obediently kneeling in the middle of the bed while Tang Xiaolian and Zhou Hongyu lay beside him, transmitting voices about something unknown.

“I brought these from the cafeteria; I think they’re pretty good, hey try one.” Ye Jun uninvitedly sat down beside the bed and enthusiastically said, “Thin skin, lots of filling!”

Yan Yu took a bite of the bun; it was indeed good. Who would have thought that the base cafeteria’s chef actually had such skill.

After he finished a bun, he heard Ye Jun say again:

“You’ve had a really tough day today.”

Seeing her beating around the bush, Yan Yu asked with a chuckle:

“Isn’t Lord Master tired? Besides the Zhenhai Team, he was also accompanying all three other teams for the whole process.”

“He’s not tired.” Ye Jun immediately rolled her eyes, “Why do you think he wanted to accompany them? Because he can’t stand that only you are the team’s stabilizer!”

“Indeed.” Yan Yu nodded in agreement, “I’ve been in the limelight so much, if he as the Deputy doesn’t volunteer himself to take on more responsibilities, he’ll probably feel totally irrelevant.”

“Pfft!” Ye Jun couldn’t help but laugh, “That’s the reason.”

“Being Lord Master’s Deputy must be even tougher for you.” Yan Yu said.

“Ah, if only I had joined the Zhenhai Team at the start.” Ye Jun said casually, yet her gaze was fixed on Yan Yu’s eyes.

“You’re from Jinmen, how could you come to Zhenhai.” Yan Yu laughed, “Do you want to go to the other second-line teams of the Dingbei Army?”

“That would definitely not do.” Ye Jun also laughed, “The other teams don’t have you.”

Li Minghu frowned, Zhou Hongyu’s eyes sharpened, Tang Xiaolian was slightly startled.

Isn’t this a confession? This is clearly a confession! The team with you is the one she wants to be in!

“You’re being humorous now.” Yan Yu said, “Which team could produce a Cultivator of my level? It’s a once in ten thousand years occurrence, okay? If we’re talking about the percentage, it’s like zero point zero zero zero zero zero…”

“Alrighty then.” Ye Jun said, “At least several hundred zeroes after the decimal point.”

Miss Ye, without saying anything else, was just happy to flatter someone, which was exactly what Yan Yu needed to brag, so he didn’t care about the other ladies hiding on the bed and just smiled:

“Don’t disbelieve me, I’ll tell you: the True Obscurity Sun Sword Intent I’m hosting in my Sea of Consciousness, you know about it, right?”

“How could I not know?” Ye Jun laughed, “One sword to destroy a nation, so mighty and impressive.”

“How do you think it chose me?” Yan Yu asked proudly.

“I don’t know.” Ye Jun said.

“Because my swordsmanship level is this.” Yan Yu raised his thumb, “It said, amongst the tens of millions of sword masters it has served, there isn’t a single one whose swordsmanship can match mine. The good bird chooses the tree to roost, as the famous sword chooses its master to serve. Get it?”

“I never said that.” The True Obscurity Sword Intent interjected, “And where did those tens of millions of sword masters come from?!”

“Wow, tens of millions of sword masters?” Ye Jun exclaimed, “Even changing one sword master a year, that would take tens of millions of years!”

“So you’re saying I kill one sword master a year, right?” The Sword Intent commented again, “I can’t stand you guys.”

“That’s nothing.” Yan Yu waved his hand, “In the Cultivation World, tens of millions of years is nothing, just a snap of the fingers.”

“It’s been long enough indeed,” Ye Jun said with a smile, “for Sword Intent to wait tens of millions of years just to encounter you, that’s really a probability with a string of zeros after the decimal point.”

“Only a talent that emerges once in tens of millions of years could spout such shameless nonsense so confidently,” True Obscurity Sun Sword Intent mocked, “None of my previous sword masters could hold a candle to you in this regard.”

“Exactly,” Yan Yu slapped his thigh and said, “Can you expect any other second-tier team from the Dingbei Army to produce a cultivator of my caliber? Impossible, right? Maybe ‘a cultivator with half my strength’ sounds a bit more plausible.”

“What do you think about Lord Master’s level then?” Ye Jun asked, “Does he have half your strength?”

“It’s hard to compare,” Yan Yu replied, “If we only talk about his swordsmanship level, maybe he is about half as good as me. But he has his Taoism Method, doesn’t he?”

“Let me tell you something,” Ye Jun suddenly remembered and chuckled, “Previously He Ye was chatting with me privately… He Ye, you know, Lord Master’s little girlfriend, you remember her, right?”

“Mm, I remember.”

“She asked me who is stronger, Lord Master or you.”

“What did you tell her?”

“I said Lord Master isn’t even fit to carry your shoes,” Ye Jun said.

“That’s a bit much,” Yan Yu hurriedly waved his hands, “You should have given him some face in front of his girlfriend, or he’ll make life difficult for you.”

“Cough, that’s actually what I intended to say,” Ye Jun said with a grin, “But then I thought, saying Lord Master is stronger goes against my conscience, and saying you’re stronger would hurt Lord Master’s pride.”

“So what did you end up saying?”

“I dodged the question with some jests.”

“How exactly?”

“I told He Ye,” Ye Jun deliberately dragged out his words, speaking slowly, “I said I hadn’t tested between these two dudes, so I really don’t know who’s stronger; since you’ve already tested Lord Master, how about I try out Yan Yu, and then we can put our heads together and compare?”

Yan Yu was listening intently, but suddenly he felt a tightness down below, and shuddered.

Hongyu, why are you doing this again! Minghu, are you in on it too…

“Ow, what’s wrong?” Noticing his strange expression, Ye Jun asked with surprise, “I was just joking!”

“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Yan Yu quickly leaned forward, “I know you were joking, you didn’t mean it that way.”

In the dark, Tang Xiaolian, who had been observing the whole time, blushed and sent a telepathic message to Zhou Hongyu and Li Minghu:

“Hey, what are you guys doing?”

“Teaching him a lesson,” Zhou Hongyu said through gritted teeth.

“Yan Yu doesn’t want Ye Jun to discover us,” Li Minghu explained with more patience, “If we do this, he’ll try to end the conversation and hurry to send Ye Jun away to prevent any odd behavior from being detected. Otherwise, if the two of them keep jabbering away, who knows when they’ll stop!”

“Oh, indeed,” Tang Xiaolian was eager to try, “Then let me have a go.”

“Don’t you dare,” Zhou Hongyu immediately felt heartache and anger at the thought of the team’s Xiao Lian also engaging with that beast, “Men’s stuff is all stinky, don’t get involved!”

Stinky? And yet you’re not letting go? Tang Xiaolian didn’t believe it one bit but kept her eyes rolling around.

“Uhm,” Ye Jun felt a hint of shyness, brushed the short hair behind her ears, and casually switched topics, “He Ye suggested to me, maybe it’s worth trying to let my hair grow long.”

“You’ve never had long hair before?” Yan Yu asked in surprise.

“I’ve tried a few times,” Ye Jun said, feeling a bit embarrassed, “I found washing it to be troublesome, so I couldn’t resist cutting it short. What do you think?”

“I think girls look better with long hair,” considering Zhou Hongyu and Li Minghu both had long hair, Yan Yu swiftly and subtly expressed his preference, “Of course, I’m not trying to influence your choice; it’s just my personal aesthetic preference.”

The grip loosened a bit; seems like they were quite pleased with my answer.

“Maybe I should,” Ye Jun revealed an intrigued look, “Then I’ll give growing long hair a try.”

The grip tightened again! Yan Yu couldn’t help but widen his eyes and inhale sharply.

Guys, Xiao Lian, save me!
